A graduated cylinder.measures 15.3 mL. Convert this measurement to DaL
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

0.000153DaL  

Explanation:

We have been given:

         15.3mL to convert to DaL

DaL is a unit of volume which indicates a decaliter.

 This implies that;

             1 Da L  = 1 x 10²L

So:

               1 mL  = 1 x 10⁻³L

       So 15.3mL will give 15.3 x 10⁻³L

So;

           1 x 10²L   =  1 DaL  

      15.3 x 10⁻³L  will give \frac{15.3 x 10^{-3} }{1 x 10^{2} }   = 15.3 x 10⁻⁵DaL

Therefore, this is 0.000153DaL

Jeff of the Jungle swings on a 7.6-m vine that initially makes an angle of 32 ∘ with the vertical.
shtirl [24]

To solve this problem we will use the trigonometric concepts to find the distance h, which will allow us to find the speed of Jeff and that will finally be the variable that will indicate the total tension, since it is the variable of the centrifugal Force given in the vine at the lowest poing of the swing.

From the image:

cos (32) = \frac{(7.6-h)}{7.6}

h = 1.1548m

When Jeff reaches his lowest point his potential energy is converted to kinetic energy

PE = KE

mgh = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

v = \sqrt{2gh}

v = \sqrt{2(9.8)(1.1548)}

v= 4.75m/s

Tension in the string at the lowest point is sum of weight of Jeff and the his centripetal force

T = W+F_c

T = mg + \frac{mv^2}{r}

T = (83)(9.8)+\frac{(9.8)( 4.75)^2}{7.6}

T = 842.49N

Therefore the tension in the vine at the lowest point of the swing is 842.49N

A tennis player tosses a tennis ball straight up and then catches it after 2.00 s at the same height as the point of release. (a
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Part a)

a = -9.81 m/s/s

Part b)

v = 0

Part c)

v = 9.81 m/s

Part d)

H = 4.905 m

Explanation:

Part a)

During the motion of ball it will have only gravitational force on the ball

so here the acceleration of the ball is only due to gravity

so it is given as

a = g = 9.81 m/s^2

Part b)

As we know that ball is moving against the gravity

so here the velocity of ball will keep on decreasing as the ball moves upwards

so at the highest point of the motion of the ball the speed of ball reduce to zero

v_f = 0

Part c)

We know that the total time taken by the ball to come back to the initial position is T = 2 s

so in this time displacement of the ball will be zero

\Delta y = 0 = v_y t + \frac{1}{2} at^2

0 = v_y (2) - \frac{1}{2}(9.81)(2^2)

v_y = 9.81 m/s

Part d)

at the maximum height position we know that the final speed will be zero

so we will have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

here we have

0 - (9.81^2) = 2(-9.81)H

H = 4.905 m
